     The following article appeared in the Sycamore, Illinois The True Republican, 16 August 1916 :
In Grandsire's 'Footsteps.
     Two grandsons of Matt Belles and his wife Mary Renwick Belles and who have other relatives in Sycamore, are showing the "stuff' of which their sires were made, according to the following from a Clinton (Iowa) paper: Two sons of Policeman Henry Price are doing duty with other Clinton men in Brownsville. This is not so much in itself but it is family pride that the lads are ready for the fray in practically the same locality where Richard Price, their grandfather, fought in '45. The boys from Clinton are Walter and "Pat'' Price and word received from the former this morning bears the news that he [has] been promoted to the rank of first [ser]geant.
     Note that damage to the lower right cornier of this article obscures parts of the last few lines. Contemporary articles in the Brownsville Herald speak of large multi-state National Guard training exercises being conducted in the area. (Rick Moffat, Jan 31, 2022.)12

     The following obituary appeared in the newspaper The True Republican published in Sycamore, Illinois 18 November 1916:
Matt Belles Dead
     For Many Years Employed As A Mason In Sycamore, And Well Known Here, Died On Sunday At Clinton, Iowa.
     Matt Belles, for many years employed as a mason in Sycamore and a well known citizen here a number of years ago, died on Sunday at Clinton, Iowa, where he had made his home for some years.
     He had lately been in poor health, and his mind had become affected, so it was necessary to care for him in a hospital for the insane. He was in his 80th year.
     Mr. Belles married Miss Renwick of Sycamore, who survives. Her sister Mrs. Jennie Gordon of Genoa was present at the funeral which was held at Clinton on Thursday.3
